As the hardware requirements are listed right now, it absolutely won't be supported. That said the hardware requirements don't seem very strictly enforced in the leaked version, but yeah

I tried using a leaked version that was for older pcs but when it restarted on my 5,1 i just had a black screen. Not sure what was going on at that point .....

I just installed Windows 11 ???.

Sorry if this is an off topic but I just successfully installed Windows 11 on my Mac Pro. It is quite easy, instead of downloading the ISO, you have to create it with https://gist.github.com/AveYo/c74dc774a8fb81a332b5d65613187b15 or https://makmodo.com/install-windows-11-without-tpm/ for details. Also the filename changed from `install.wim` to `install.esd`. Thats all what changed from the great APPENDIX from @cdf.

Maybe someone else could try this. Currently Bluetooth and Wireless are not working. @cdf Do you know the problems with Bluetooth and Wireless in Windows 10? Sorry for the question, its my first Windows on my Mac Pro.

Hahaha, but yes it is on fire right now, playing ?Diablo 2 Resurrected?. It's just so cool, what you can do with the power of OpenCore and the folks here in the forum ?.
Cool, am also playing D2R on a 5,1! Message me your battle.net tag if you want to play/trade sometime
